Diary

Such a wonderful suspense thriller. While the story was taking its own shape in the 1st half, the 2nd half of the story brought me to the tip of my seat, traveling back and forth in time and connecting the dots with the unexpected twists was mind blowing. Especially when it kept all of us thinking where did this guy disappear with the bag? The role was really well played by actor Thanikai, which indeed brought us to tears with his emotions. Kudos! To the entire crew..The best part was, watching a good movie which was well narrated. My dad while he walked out, was reminiscing each and every scene and finally said this with satisfaction "oru nalla novel padicha feeling"

I like Arulnithi movies for his silent thriller acting... while other heroes are engaged with their commercial movies... Arulnithi always give silent yet superhit movies... That's Arulnithi's style which I like more... In diary one guy surprised me with his emotional acting... who literally made me cry in the climax scene...nobody can match mother's love,it has been beautiful portrayed in this movie... Hey Thanikai you did a great job man, Loved your acting... You have a great future ahead... I wish to see you in more and more movies ... Best wishes for all your upcoming projects - ur new fan.

The core theme is really impressive one. They took more than enough time to introduce each character. Still it was so beneficial when the core theme get unfolded.

The horror factor and some scare moments are presented very well, especially the ticket checker sequences. Watch it with some good sound effect.

At the same time the movie looks more dragged and lost its narration on the love Jodi elope and marriage sequences. The entire bus sequence was awesome except this marriage flow.

Some of the fight sequences and songs could be easily avoided. The climax is bit over the top.

Arulnithini once again chose an amazing script, i wonder how he choses his scripts they r very unique from the other movies. This movie starts as an horror movie and leaves you with amazing thriller suspense ride in the end. Story is really mind blowing, cinematography is really good and VFX part is also good. Acting wise everyone performed well🔥. The story has been adapted by real life based incident happened in China "The Bus route 375" till now no one has ever solved the mystery behind it. Director built an amazing story using a small concept and gave some amazing suspense in the movie.

They could've dragged a bit more and built few elements in the plots.

A must watch movie for Thriller lovers.

Diary is added to one of the serious mystery thrillers in Tamil cinema. The thread here is little complicated, but well potrayed. But it's not perfect or a great one. Flaws like action, unnecessary romantic events of hero and the lead actress, not so funny comedy scenes etc. But even in these negatives, what keeps the movie engaging is the thrilling element in the story. The movie is basically narrated as a rookie inspector of police being assigned to a crime case which happened 16 years ago in the vast areas of ooty. But the unthinkable events happens towards the interval of the movie and can be said that the movie actually picks the real pace from there only. Acting performances felt like average from everyone including arul nidhi. Decent VFX works as well. But still, the story backs all these flaws in the movie. The makers has put the effort not to confuse thr audience in the huge number of events and they were successful in doing that. A good watch. Go for it.
